Hi all:
Yes, a technical question for a change. Currently I have been tasked to phase out the paid consultant and research and review various conditions of approvals that are available for use permits surrounding dispensaries / retail sales of cannabis. Obviously this may only be applicable to certain States. Besides the one's laid out in ordinance (security, records, background checks), as well as standard stuff (signage, building permits, hours of operations), anything that sort of jumps out at you that needs to be regulated for a use permit to ensure compliance and err "green" pastures?

These might all be covered somewhere, but I'll throw it out in case in make you say hmmm.
Any problems with cooking/baking (add your own jokes later), etc. or does someone else make the edibles?
Problems with growing, is that allowed in store? It was in Arizona.
Light or energy use in growing?
Any problems with people rooting through their trash?
Require quality security cameras, not the kind where Big Foot stole from the corner store.

Architectural conditions to make sure the building is consistent with surrounding buildings.
Trash shall be stored within a fully secured area
No outdoor storage
Vans with shag carpeting must be parked in the back

If you want different results in your life, you need to do different things than you have done in the past. Change is that simple.

These are the standards we adopted for our small city in Oregon. Right now we have nine pot shops. Some of the standards reflect State of Oregon requirements.
